""BASTA, BASTA" a confirmation of the nearness of the rapture."


 


This is a long read so please be patient, but if you hear my story I believe you will truly be blessed and encouraged at the lateness of the hour and the nearness of our Lord's return..............................................
I frequently consider and mourn over our world's circumstances- every time I hear of increased evil in the world I wonder how much more O Lord? - I know many of you do the same, we all feel like Peter described Lot when he was in Sodom& Gomorrah "vexed in spirit".............................................
Inevitably this vexation leads only to meditation on the rapture, the blessed hope where we will be given rest and relieved of this world's ever increasing trouble.  I began thinking of what we would hear at the rapture - we know from scripture we will hear the Lord descend with a shout, the voice of the archangel and the Trump of God.................................................
If we examine each of these, I have always thought the archangel will proclaim "behold the Bridegroom comes" The voice of the Lord will say "Come up here!" (as in Rev 4:1) and the trumpet seems self evident.  Of course we will hear all of this with ears of the Spirit prior to our earthly bodies being changed in that moment.................................................
So then I got to thinking, what if we could hear God's voice just prior to the rapture-just prior to the "come up here" what would be the last thing He would likely say beforehand? I was thinking of the phrase we use at Passover time "dayenu" or "it would have been enough for us" and I thought perhaps the last thing He would say is "Enough is enough!"  Enough of this wickedness, I am about to judge the world. Enough of the suffering of my bride among the wicked of the world, its time for her to come home. Enough is enough.............................................................
Let me shift gears- I have spoken in tounges before, and as I became more fluent I noticed that it became easier as I just let go and let the Holy Spirit give me a word- sometimes I just think the word and if I am in public it is inappropriate to just say it at that time, or if I am praying the word just comes out naturally...........................................................
I have had a word pop into my head for a few days now and did not give it a whole lot of thought until yesterday - the word is "basta" and it is usually repeated "basta, basta" - so while driving in the car yesterday my wife was talking about "pasta" and it made me say to her and my son - "has anyone ever heard of the word basta? rhymes with pasta I keep hearing it".................................................................
My wife said, "what do you mean you keep hearing it?  Who is saying it to you? " I said, "I don't know, no one says it, its just a voice in my head- I think its a Holy Spirit thing"  God bless my wife, most people think you are nuts talking about "voices in thier head" but she knows what I am talking about..................................................
No one knew what the word meant, so now that we were on the subject I decided to use my phone to do an internet search on the word- guess what came up? BASTA - Italian for "stop" or "enough!"........................................................
I realized then that it was a Holy Spirit thing because I know 2 languages fairly well- English is my mother toungue, but I also know Hebrew fairly well- If God had used either of these languages I could have easily reasoned away that the voice I was hearing was just manufactured by myself........................................
Full disclosure, I know a smattering of Italian because I had an Italian grandmother, but she did not speak it much, and when she did it was mostly the "naughty" words- so I don't know much Italian at all and had no idea what "basta" meant until yesterday- but the Word says "they shall speak with new toungues" and I bear witness, this is how the Holy Spirit communicated it to me........................................
So be encouraged Church! Get ready Bride!  While I certainly do not know the day or the hour- we must be getting REALLY close- because I think I have been hearing from the Spirit that God has had just about ENOUGH of this and is about to proclaim basta, basta ENOUGH is ENOUGH of this evil world just before He proclaims COME UP HERE!.................................................................
I hope this has encouraged and edified some one
MARANATHA! Baruch HaBa BShem YHVH...
